Great bank!

Have been using Starling as my main account for the past 3 almost 4 years now. Never missed a beat! Customer service is great, app is easy to use and feature rich, with more stuff being added all the time! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

21st century approach to banking

Easy, visually pleasing app makes my life so much easier... and most importantly it’s ethical! I couldn’t ask for more! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A Great Find

Initially opened this account because the foreign exchange was such good value and so easy. But I am sold! It's so easy to use, no fuss, no faff. Rates are good, customer service - when I've needed it - has so far been excellent (a note of caution: as companies become bigger their customer service ALWAYS deteriorates; so hope this doesn't happen here!). Easy to navigate, clear, modern and excellent service. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Switched to starling last year and i"m so happy that I did for both Personal and Business Accounts

All my dealings with Customer Service have been very good nothing is to much trouble and the banking app for both Personal and Business are fantastic the thing i'm most impressed with is the security ie when making online payments you have to approve in your app before they will be approved which at this time where fraud is high this really protects your money.

Instant notifications

I can do everything in my app also i got instantly notification of any transaction Thanks Starling Bank you are the best online Bank Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great free current account

Starling Bank has great services, providing me a current account where I can create my own saving goals and, also, I can manage all my account with my mobile. Lat year, they created the option to use it in computer/laptop, that was great because sometimes I prefer to use it. Also, Starling Bank has the option to have a Euro account, if you want. It's very useful to me because I'm travelling to Europe a lot. Fantastic product. Thanks Starling Bank. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Just such an efficient user friendly app

I use my card primarily for online purchases and pYments, but it is equally just as enjoyable using out and about in the retail world. It really is a joy to use with confidance. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Easy to use app based banking.

Having had a nightmare experience with HSBC with their over complicated security systems forcing me to navigate between an app and online banking to do what should be straightforward and simple tasks, it was an easy decision to open an account with Starling. This was easy to do as have all other tasks via the app. Great banking experience Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
